Hungarian Academy of Sciences - Soros Foundation Committee

The Budapest foundation, founded in May 1984, was George Soros’ first pilot enterprise in the one-time communist bloc, years before he opened the similar Beijing, Moscow, and Warsaw offices in the late 1980s or established his huge foundation network in the early 1990s throughout Central and Eastern Europe. At that “pre-Gorbachev” time, it was the only authorized “foundation” as such, even in Hungary, with a more or less protocol-like, official partnership with the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Nevertheless, this “strange marriage,” which was forced by the regime, could not prevent the foundation’s inventive curators and a small but animated operative team from going on with the daring “expedition” and breaking more and more taboos of the late Kádár era by offering hundreds of grants, stipends, and other means of support for artists, writers, scholars, students, etc. every year. The Budapest Soros Foundation, which split with the Academy of Sciences in 1990, has continued to work independently on a steadily growing yearly budget from New York and to face the old and emerging challenges faced by a civil society.

Hungarian Associaton of the Order of Malta

The Sovereign Order of Malta is one of the oldest institutions of Western Christian civilisation. A lay religious order of the Catholic Church since 1113 and a subject of international law, the Sovereign Order of Malta has diplomatic relations with over 100 states and the European Union. Now, the Order of Malta is active in 120 countries. It provides care for people in need through its medical, social and humanitarian work. In 1928, the new Hungarian national association of the Sovereign Order of Malta was created under the presidency of Archduke Joseph Habsburg. Thanks to the generous support of Count Jenő Karátsonyi, the building in Fortuna Street was purchased to serve as the Association’s seat. The catastrophe of 1944–1945 forced most of the surviving members of the Order into exile, and the Order’s building was nationalised. The Association came back to life in Rome, led first by Hubert Pallavicini, then Baron Gábor Apor, and finally Kristóf Kállay. These three leaders ensured the continuity of the Hungarian Association from 1946 to 1995. In 1986, a strategic decision was made by the leadership of the Association. The time was ripe to act more prominently and openly inside Hungary. February 1987 bore witness to the first formal meeting and agreement between representatives of the Order and the Hungarian Government. As a result, medication and medical equipment could be imported and distributed in appropriate ways through the networks of the Catholic Church. The Hungarian Charity Service of the Order of Malta was registered in early 1989 as one of the first independent civil society organizations conforming to recently renewed legislation.

Hungarian Cultural Society of Transylvania

The Hungarian Cultural Society of Transylvania (HCST) established in 1885 at Kolozsvár, for developing the Transylvanian Hungarian's general knowledge and the health of the people. After World War I, the donated wealth of the HCST was lost because of the war loan and its properties expropriation for the agrarian reform. Although the Romanian State didn't approve the Society's' constitutions, it's operations was very limited, the activity grew up much more in the 1930s. In 1947, the new Romanian Communist government abolished the HCST as 'a bourgeois institution.' In 1991, with the help of the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania (DAHR) the Society reorganized in Brassó. In 2001, the HCST got off from the DAHR, now it operates as an independent umbrella organization. Since 2004, the Society became an alliance of cultural civic organizations.

Hungarian Democratic Forum

The Hungarian Democratic Forum was the first legal opposition movement in socialist Hungary. It was founded on 27 September 1987 in Sándor Lezsák’s garden in Lakitelek by members of the populist-nationalist (or national democratic) opposition. The Forum focused on Hungarian national and cultural traditions, and it aimed to find a “third way” between capitalism and communism. One of the main problems for the founders was the worrisome situation of Hungarian minorities in the neighboring socialist countries. The Hungarian Democratic Forum announced its foundation in Lakitelek in September 1988. The first issue of the Forum’s non-official periodical Hitel (Credit) was published in November 1988. By the end of the year, the membership of the Forum had reached 10,000. The first national assembly of the Forum was held on 11–12 March 1989, where the official basic statutes and first program were accepted. The Forum took part in the Opposition Roundtable talks and in the meetings of the National Roundtable. The Hungarian Democratic Forum became a political party on 24 June 1989, and the Capital Court officially registered it in December 1989. On 20–22 October 1989, in the second national assembly of the Forum, the party elected József Antall to serve as president. When Antall took over control of the party from founding president Zoltán Bíró, the MDF shifted away from populist-national principles towards a national-conservative and Christian democratic ideology.
